Pollute less and be conscious of your energy use. & good rule to follow for conservation is The Three R’s: REDUCE: Reduce the amount of trash you produce and the amount of energy that you consume. This is the best way to conserve natural resources and reduce pollution. Reuse: Buy products that you can use more than once. Try to avoid disposable items that use up natural resources and produce extra trash. Recycte: Recycling is a process that reuses and changes used materials into things that can be of use.

ECOSYSTEM SERVICES are the positive benefits that wildlife and ecosystems provide to people, such as soil formation and nutrient recycling. For example, wetlands are crucial for water purification—they can remove 20 to 60 percent of metals in water and eliminate lots of nitrogen entering the water. Because biodiversity and ecosystem services are in danger, scientists are engineering ways to balance our ecosystems, such as restoring wetlands and creating BIODIVERSITY PARKS—special environments designed to support diverse life forms.
